FEDs Relentless Assault On The NFL

The latest full assault by the FED on the nation’s most popular sports franchise, the NFL, comes as an unprecedented series of apparently warrant-less drug raids Sunday around the league as teams were raided by DEA agents at airports and stadiums around the country.

The Left’s War on Football just escalated.

“We come here to inspect you for the good of AmeriKa.” Hmmmm, sounds a little like 1984.

Do you feel safer now that Obama and his thugs are cracking down on those dangerous NFL players while our open border to the south enables drug cartels, drug runners, and terrorists to walk right in?

Instead ladies and gentlemen, our president’s DEA (under the Department of Justice controlled by the Attorney General) would rather slap down America’s favorite sport in a public spectacle of intimidation and control, perhaps until the Redskins change their team name to ‘Indigenous Citizens’. It’s simply stunning.

Comments I’ve read this morning about this attack:

What a waste of taxpayers money. It is interesting that they will raid the NFL but not the Academy Awards or the campus of our nation’s biggest tech company? Think you’ll find any drugs there?

This smells of a shakedown. Somebody at the NFL didn’t do what Obama told them to do, and so he is using the power of the federal government to make them pay. The government might as well leave a fishhead by the front door of the NFL league office, until they get the Redskins name changed. This is what liberals do, this is what they are all about. They have to control as much of our lives as possible because they think most people are too stupid to do it themselves.

The majority of Americans have no problem with football and the fact that there has always been a small element of drug use in all sports. It’s just the way it is. Why do we allow these idiots to dictate to us what our lives will be? Why? If they don’t like the game, then don’t watch it. Leave those who do alone!

The Government is a growing and dangerous monster that is eating The Constitution for a snack. The “teeth” of the new “heads” are the Federal “law enforcement” operatives – they are many and they are “sharp” because of technology and because of seemingly unlimited funds available to buy enforcement “tools”. I see nothing in the immediate future that will destroy this modern Hydra.

Libs are control freaks. They generally fail at guiding their own lives so they have to control the rest of us as a way of giving their lives some kind of meaning.

Nice that the Fed’s have the resources to attack the NFL while failing to protect the border – only in Amerika!!!!

Pot is Okay, but no painkillers for the NFL. What a joke. The panty waisted admin doesn’t like football because it lets men have competition.

250+ lb men that hit, throw and slam themselves into other very large intimidating men while all making a whole bunch of money have been rumored to take pain killers. What a shocker!

They’ll never go after soccer. It’s a socalist game. Only football it truely an American tradition.

I give football 10 years at the most. Football has become a pariah like hunting and playgrounds for kids and NASCAR is next.The Liberals have got the bit in their teeth and will not stop until every man in America wears panties and speaks with a lisp.

yep….it’s much, much easier to rule a bunch of overly emotional, metrosexual panty wastes than it is to rule a crowd of American men leaning forward and telling you to kiss their ass..

Checked bags on ‘suspicion’ of violating the controlled substances act? Did any of that checking involve probable cause, ergo a warrant – or is the DEA operating on a warrantless-wiretap kind of thing these days.

Meanwhile, the Mexican Kingpins are still busy counting the loot they scored as a result of what was walked across the Southern border on Sunday alone.

Obama is a JOKE. He IS the enemy, history will show that – and when I say history I mean this whole thing is going to come tumbling down within a few years.

This is part of a much larger multi-pronged campaign against football, on all levels, and by extension, against manliness in general. This was a type of P.R. move by federal control freaks plus it had an effect of creating just a little more anxiety among the owners. A spinoff benefit is creating apprehension in the minds of doctors not associated with sports. Federal micro-management is “on steroids”.

Ony in America can you be stopped, searched and detained with no court order, no probable cause and no other reason than the arresting police placing you under custody at his will. Sadly enough unless this happens to you or a loved one and you had to go through the “kangaroo courts” you will never truly understand how bad it is. Our government has been the “bully on the playground”. Our very system that we fought for is gone. What liberties are left will be taken in the next 10-20 years. Our government gave China every documents for perpersonal weapons transaction. They know what weapons you own or bought. Why would our government give a potential candidate for a war this information unless there was a “Benedict Arnold” that is behind it? American citizens better wake up and realize that the threats we face are not in another country but here in the United States of America. Our freedoms and liberties, our Constitution and all it stands for is nothing but writing on an old piece of paper. I’m willing to bleed my last drop of blood to keep our flag red, but not one drop for our government. If there extreme actions against citizens, community’s and homes are any indication of their policies and they no longer recognize our Constitution Right’s, what did our forefathers fight and die for? Did we trade one dictator a thousand miles away for one 100 miles away? I am too old to see the” New America” and I am glad. I refuse to be ruled, dictated and or told how to live my life.

@Wildbill, Only in America? WTF are you smoking? Really! You must be one that has never left this country and traveled the world like I have. I am a US citizen born and raised here in Florida and have with my military service lived in Germany and South Korea. My job in the military sent me TDY to over 35 different countries, some of the TDY’s were for extended periods of time. Almost all of the countries I have visited Customs and the police had the right to screw with citizens and visitors all they want without warrants or any type of legal documents. Even with our diplomatic passports we were screwed with by countries that are our allies. We have it made here in the US. Other countries dream about our freedoms, that is why so many want to come here. You need to re-think your comment “Only in America”.

It is certainly a good thing that US troops are still guarding the Afghan poppy fields. Heroin is becoming the number one drug for overdosing in my police state. Wanna find some drugs in the work place? Raid Wall Street.

A couple of Euro trash nations already count “hookers and blo” as a portion of their GDP. Since the US now assumes “ideas and concepts” to be worth about $500 billion per year towards GDP, I can see we are not far behind the Euroswine. At least “hookers and blo” exist. LOL.

We’re past the point of no return. And yes, I’m certain that the administration fears real men in large groups. That’s why smart men are biding their time, waiting for the correct opportunity. Unfortunately, more sheeple need to wake up & join the ranks lest the smart men be crushed by overwhelming odds. But a tyrannical police state will convert many sheeple into recruits.

There is not a lot of real men left in America. If they were people like Obama and his crew would not be in office. You can thank the liberal news media for this. The men in this country need to get a set of balls and speak up.

Why is soccer always getting picked on? It’s one of the oldest organized sports on the planet. And besides that, have you ever seen footage of soccer fans going into riot mode in other countries? They would scare the crap out of the Raider’s “Black Hole” any day.
I’m sure the reason behind drug raids on the NFL is because the Feds are jealous of their TV ratings. Doing this will up the ratings for the mainstream media, AND the Feds. Welcome to the new world.

This is besides giving the NFL a hard time because they will not bow to political correctness and change the name of the Redskins , but to try to use terror tactics to scare the populace at large , by coming out against a large business like the NFL , the administration only knows how to run this country to get to the police state that Obummer wants with him as a dictator like Stalin , is by small scale force only escalating when the government deems is necessary to further the agenda . Be prepared and ready . Keep your powder dry .

A co-worker told me that the Chicago Blackhawks should exchange names with the Washington Redskins because of the P.C. hoopla—result; The Washington Redskins would be the Washington Blackskins …and then the Indians would no longer be affended. I about fell over…

If Redskins, Chiefs, Seminoles, and other sports team Indian names offend natives, then lets NOT honor them anymore… Lets change the name to something that deserves the honor.

I agree with “toolrat”.., we ARE past the point of NO RETURN ! The question now is when IT will begin.., and exactly WHAT it will be? I’m also of the opinion that there are not that many real men left. How many people do you know that are willing to give up a few dollars for a cause or principle, much less their property or their life. Remember the phrase that ended the Declaration of Independance? Something about fortunes and lives… and some such stuff.

I’m Native American. I’m not in the least offended by football teams using “Indian” names, nor are any other Natives I know of. That offence was CREATED by the media and lawyers. It makes a good story and makes somebody piles of money.
We are not offended, but if we can be made to feel offended(by the media)then there’s another point to be used to divide us.

What is the relevance of this event to the prepping community? This site is mostly about prepardness so please explain how this article has made me better prepared? Personally, I’m offended you seem to believe that conservatives support the use of PED’s in sport.

It was more or less me venting about yet another example of gov hypocrisy. In this case, the hypocrisy of doing next to nothing about drugs (and illegals, gang bangers, drug runners etc..) coming across our southern border while picking on NFL players who are apparently somehow more ‘dangerous’ to our well being. Seems ridiculous in my opinion. Additionally, ALL professional sports have an element of drug abuse – that’s just the way it is, and most people know this, and accept it for what it is – an unfortunate reality. In fact, it’s just under the surface in many other areas – perhaps even where you work, etc.. I’m sorry that you were offended. You have the ability to change the channel 😉 . I do on occasion post articles that are not directly related to the preparedness core such as food-storage, and other such topics – because there are other aspects to overall preparedness – such as staying current on events and situational awareness. This includes your govt (i.e. this article) – and what they’re doing – which may one day affect aspects of your own liberties, safety, and freedoms down the road. Consider it a public service announcement 😉

Got it, thanks. As a side note, I’m a cyclist and we’ve had our sport gutted by non-stop PED scandals and over regulation to the point that the sport is barely relevant. Anyone watching the TDF anymore little alone the smaller races? I totally agree it’s a huge waste to be going after the NFL when there’s so many bigger priorities. However, when Bush was pres the left said the world would end because of his actions, now the right says it will end because of Obama. Personally, I think it’s the division itself that will be the biggest problem rather than the positions of one side. If we allow ourselves to be manipulated by the controllers (on both sides) we will all loose.
